"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Route Climbed: Corridoor route in sept 96. Via Great End in winter 97. Mickledore feb 2000 Date Climbed: 1996, 1997 & 2000.The more interesting route for me would be the corridoor route, then return via Broad crag and Esk Hause.
Winter up via Great Ends gullies. Crampons Axes an rope in use.
Climbed into Custs Gully on a dull misty morning with Johnathan...........dead end, just as Wainwright said, try the branch gully to the right.
The top part is the only place that lets the mountain down .....a bit less interesting.
